A wider creative practice.

AI has become part of how I work as a product designer, well beyond the design file.

I turn to it with questions, use it while creating, and get help with the supporting tasks around a project. More recently, it has helped me start building the products I imagine.

That’s a meaningful shift for me.

Code is still unfamiliar territory. But I can look at an interface and explain what feels off, what needs to be clearer, or how I want an interaction to behave. AI gives me a way to work from that understanding and take an idea further.

I can now open a project, explore it with assistance, and participate more directly in making it work. I’ve released my first apps, while continuing my product design work.

The part I enjoy is having more room to act on an idea. Something I want to explore can become something I can actually use, look at, and refine.

It also makes me think more carefully about what I’m asking for. Getting something on screen is one step. Deciding whether it makes sense for the person using it still takes attention.

I want the experiences I create to feel clear, warm, and enjoyable. And, where creativity is involved, to make trying something new feel approachable.

That’s where AI is becoming a useful copilot in my practice: helping me carry an intention further, through the questions, the work around it, and the making itself.
